Report: Quinn Traded to Broncos

Campbell getting crapped on in a Brady Quinn traded thread?

*cries in corner*

I don't like this trade for the Broncos, I love it. I previously had projected Clausen to be headed there at No. 11, but this trade costs them only a pair of late rounders (unless Quinn is wildly successful, in which case, who cares), and then gives them the ability, but not the necessity, to bypass taking Clausen at No. 11 if he is there in search of better value. I wouldn't be shocked if they took him anyway in that situation, but that's the beauty of this deal: they can defer to the big board instead of picking for need.

From the Cleveland end, well, now you're even more dependent on making sure the quarterback you get in the draft is really to play by Delhomme's 10th INT (week 3). If they don't take Clausen at No. 7 because they don't like him after tape evaluation, will Zac Robinson or Dan Lefevour be ready to play by October (McCoy could fall to them in the second as well)? That might end up being their best bet.

Denver fans were actually discussing a month back (I think it might have been discussed here to) a Marshall/Quinn swap. Obviously Cleveland would have had to throw in a draft pick or two but the point was that both Marshall and Quinn were going to switch jerseys.

With all the short passes Denver throws this is probably the best place for Quinn to land. But I simply don't think Denver still has a 16 game starter with Quinn or Orton.

I'd trade down to 7 with them and pick up a couple of their 3rd rounders
Eh...better make that a 3rd and a 4th rounder. Don't think one would get 2 picks in the 3rd round for dropping 3 spots.

One could, especially when one pick would be a the top of the 3rd round and the other toward the bottom

Good deal for the Browns.


Glad he's not coming here...I saw him last season on MNF for he was absolutely horrid. He wasn't just having a bad game, he was throwing screen passes into the stands. It was beyond just having a bad night.

Sorry about that, Gtripp. I was fired up for a moment yesterday and maybe vented a little bit..

You are forgetting they picked up Seneca Wallace too! Between their two new QBs, Cleveland could be better off letting Cribbs play QB full time in the wildcat.

Good deal for the Browns.

Good deal for Quinn, he made out better than most here.

When have the Browns EVER had a QB worth anything without going back to the ORIGINAL Browns and Bernie Kosar? Really, the biggest career killer for a QB is playing in Cleveland.
